Kor'Vesh Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Fraters - I thought it might be the time to point out this fact to all. We are losing the ETL. I don't do this to guilt anyone, or because I think we should win at all costs... I'd just hate us to lose this annual competition out of complacency! We pledged big, but, right now, we aren't quite delivering. But there is still time! The work has been stunning in our thread, and we can push for even more great quality models before the month is out. This board is awesome - it's a great community, and exceptional in its positivity. Let's give it one more push to show all of the BnC how good we are.

ROBOcaster Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I will not fail, you or any of my brothers, with only 1 sicaran battle tank left to complete my vow I will see this done. For Ferrus, for Medusa, for Terra, and the Emperor himself this I vow.

Slips Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I'll have my 2000+ point vow done by next week in all likely hood. Should help give us a little bump in the points.

Scribe Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 My 2400ish point vow will also be wrapping up...for Chaos. Whats that you hear? I believe it would be the laughing...of thirsting gods.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 How far behind are we? Almost exactly 1000 pts to the Chaos forum. I had expected to buckle down this month and try to get my vow finished but an unexpected job offer now has me working 50 hours a week, some other life issues cropped up, and I'm working on stuff for my project thread with Hyenas at the same time. I might just have to finally admit to myself that I'm much more a builder than a painter and stop putting myself in these kinds of situations. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311022-we-are-losing-the-etl/#findComment-4121173 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I just had a look through the list of AoD participants and there seems to be an awful lot of small, first vows that haven't been completed. Many of these vows look like single Centurions or Praetors. I don't mean to gripe, but surely one mini in three months is manageable... Having said that, I'm still hopeful that we'll see a rush of completions closer to the deadline :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311022-we-are-losing-the-etl/#findComment-4121175 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Yeah. I don't have much room to talk, but we started strong and then kinds stumbled and fell the last 4-6 weeks.

Kor'Vesh Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 How far behind are we?Don't forget though -the amount we complete gets modified by our completion rate. We pledged a lot more than chaos, so we have to get a good lead on them in completed points to win. Honestly, I think we need to hold all our current points (so complete all secondary vows) and find at least 15k more of completions to be in for this. We need as many of those little first vows done as possible fraters! That's a big task, but nothing we didn't already achieve when the ETL started!

Dantay VI Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 @ Remus Ventanus: Have you nothing else you an substitute for your initial vow? We had one member be allowed to re-do his initial vow as his Knights got wrecked in a car crash. As your order not arriving is outwith your control, maybe Semper canmake an exemption for you and allow you to re-do your first vow with something else. Just a thought Congrats on the job BCK, now get painting in your lunch break!!! :p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311022-we-are-losing-the-etl/#findComment-4121248 Share on other sites More sharing options...
